Robin Aigner in Boozin' & Bruisin' at Jalopy

I went to Jalopy again to see Robin Aigner. Unfortunately her site had the wrong time, so I showed up a couple hours early, came back home, and went back again! The show was a benefit for the Music Maker Relief Fund, put on by The Whistlin' Wolves (who joined most of the performances, along with David Bennet Cohen on piano).
It was funny to hear Old Plank Road performed by someone other than The Magpie, although I heard Benjoya mentioned a few times. I sat next to Sheriff Uncle Bob and recognize he was dressed for the evening from his sheriff's star (and tie with more stars), but didn't realize until he went onstage that he was a performer.

A few days ago my parents came over for lunch. After we ate, I played songs that I thought they would enjoy. One of those songs was "Old Plank Road" When it ended, I was going to put in something else, but then my dad said plaintively, "Can't we hear more from that?" So I started the song at the beginning, and he spent all time with his eyes closed, listening. His opinion when it finished? A thumbs-up and an "Oh, yeah!"
